movie review - Overlord

twenty-seven years and one million words

Somehow, the early PC game "Doom" spawned a genre of movies. Not first-person-shooter, though that has been tried. No, it's the Nazi Madmen Create Zombies thing. I suppose it's an outgrowth of the Indiana Jones movies and the actual Nazi obsession with the occult. But in The Year of Our Lord 2018, another Nazi Madmen Create Zombies movie was created. This one is set in an unspecified village in the middle of the night.
It's bonkers of course, but it works. I enjoyed the characters, the story line, the overall tone. Worked for me!
